So I have a concern , I never witnessed it myself but have been told … that the preschool teacher where my child may go to next year is treating her students disrespectful mind you these students are children with dissabilities (some are not) but she has told her aides she doesn’t want nothing to do with kids with ADHD and 3 yr olds she has been
reported to other teachers the administration and they are aware but will not do anything about .

If you absolutely have no other choice but to enroll your child in that class, then be vigilant, and if/when something happens, be the squeaky wheel. Those are babies, and they deserve to have someone advocating for them. If I felt my child's teacher (or any child's teacher for that matter) was being borderline abusive, I wouldn't stop pushing until they were fired. Period.

Yes! The squeaky wheel always has a seat at the table if there’s a concern. We meet w the same parentsmultiple times. You have that right if it’s an educational setting and not daycare.

*im not suggesting you keep stick w this place. Personally, I know myself and I’d be worried sick w that mindset. Peoples mindset don’t change easily!

3-year-olds shouldn't have a formal diagnosis at that age, so she shouldn't have to worry about that.

She teaches 3/4 year olds but will not deal with the 3 yr olds because they are to much for her is what her response was and wil literally take them by thier hand and hand them to her aides . And so much more . I just feel maybe should not been in this grade . At this age they are just getting started and need a good school experience.

I wouldn’t put my child in that preschool. Are there any other options around you? Many of the daycare/preschool centers have multiple cameras now for everyone’s peace of mind. If it’s public school pre-K, then you probably only have to go by other people’s experiences. I don’t like rumors, but something like that would worry me.

like

It does worry me , being that this issue was discussed by several to the administration. I live in a small rural area I don’t have many school options to choose from . I really don’t follow rumors but when it involves a situation that my child may have to deal with I try to listen and hope the situation changes the thing is it was told in a conversation where someone was mentioning how horrible this teacher treats her students and I was happy to mention my son was going to be going to preschool and this person Stopped and she said Omg No this is the teacher I’m talking about .. my face just dropped . I don’t know what to say or do ?

Teachers of the littlest ones have an awesome responsibility because they are the foundation for those children’s future. NO teacher of Littles should be unkind or disrespectful toward them because even a Little knows when he or she is being “meaned” (I learned this word from a Little 🥹).
ADVOCATE for your baby because at three, Littles are SUPPOSED to be active; they are exploring a whole new world.

Thank you ! All the advice I can get is helpful .

One more thing: Always, always trust your gut when it comes to your own child’s well-being. I had to remove my kids from an in-home daycare, get second opinions for their medical care, etc., etc. Mother’s intuition is really a thing!! You will never regret listening to it—I promise. My kids are now in their 20’s.

smart

Agreed with this. If you are having second thoughts then it is for a reason. You don't want to go against your gut and regret it later. This affects your children.
